As soon as Jian Ai finished speaking, Si Yue felt a burning sensation in his chest. It felt very real, as if a fire was burning him.
He wondered if he had woken up because of the pain or because of the medicine.
Frowning slightly, Si Yue asked in a dry voice, “Sect Master, how long have I been unconscious?”
Jian Ai said, “You were injured badly, so it’s been three days.”
Si Yue was about to say something when Jian Ai quickly said, “The matter has been resolved. There’s nothing to worry about. Rest well. You just woke up, so don’t be in a hurry to talk.”
Si Yue opened his mouth, and his throat felt uncomfortable. Hearing this, he nodded obediently.
…
That weekend, Wang Zichen was packing his things in his room. After his ‘unrelenting efforts’ during this period, Wang Yunzhong finally sent him to Jiang Chunfen’s place to stay for a while.
These were naturally the results Wang Zichen hoped for the most. However, although he was delighted in his heart, he looked angry.
As the saying went, one had to put on a full show. It had to be said that Wang Zichen’s IQ had been increasing recently. Even if he was leaving, he wanted Wang Yunzhong and the two elders of the Wang family to feel that he had been wronged.
As expected, Wang Yunzhong came to Wang Zichen’s room. When he saw his son’s reluctant expression, his heart softened.
After all, he was the son whom he had doted on since he was young. Wang Yunzhong couldn’t bear to let him leave his side for so long. “Son, listen to your mother when you go to her place. You can’t relax in your studies anymore. You’re about to take the college entrance examination, understand?”
Wang Zichen said nothing. He threw his laptop into the suitcase and turned around to throw his earphones in. Anger filled his every action.
Seeing this, Wang Yunzhong couldn’t bear to scold him anymore. He felt it was reasonable for his son to be angry. If not because Xu Qianqian needed a quiet place to recuperate, he wouldn’t have sent his son away.
“Call me when you’re done packing. Dad will drive you there.” Wang Yunzhong sighed softly and turned around to leave.
As soon as Wang Yunzhong left, Old Madam Wang sneaked into the room.
The old lady who suddenly appeared behind him shocked Wang Zichen. “Grandma, don’t you make a sound when you walk? Didn’t I tell you to knock?!”
When Old Madam Wang heard this, she quickly pulled Wang Zichen and asked him to lower his voice. “Don’t shout. Your door isn’t closed, so Grandma came in.”
As soon as she finished speaking, regardless of Wang Zichen’s impatient expression, the old lady reached into her pocket and took out a dark red plastic bag. She stuffed it into the suitcase for Wang Zichen. “Don’t let your father see this. Grandma and Grandpa are giving you twenty thousand yuan for pocket money. When you reach your mother’s place, use this money to buy whatever you want to eat. Don’t treat yourself badly.”
Twenty thousand yuan!
When Wang Zichen heard this amount, his eyes widened.
Although he had grown up in a rich family environment, he was still an underage child. Wang Yunzhong only gave him one to two thousand yuan as pocket money at most.
Now that the old lady took out twenty thousand yuan, Wang Zichen couldn’t react for a moment. It felt like a dream.
In the end, Wang Zichen was the darling of the Wang family. The old lady doted on her grandson the most. In addition, she had given him away because of Xu Qianqian. The old lady felt very upset and was afraid that her grandson would hate her. Therefore, she gritted her teeth and gave twenty thousand yuan to Wang Zichen to make him happier.
Wang Zichen was already happy in his heart. Now that he saw twenty thousand yuan, he was even happier.
“Thank you, Grandma,” he thanked her sweetly, instantly making the old lady happy.
“Don’t be angry at your father. When your Auntie Qianqian gives birth to a brother, we’ll bring you back,” the old lady comforted him.
Wang Zichen nodded obediently and asked tentatively, “Grandma, can I casually spend that money?”
“Of course you can!” The old lady smiled kindly. “This is for you. You can buy whatever you want. But don’t let your mother see it. Otherwise, she might confiscate it. Don’t let Zimeng see it either. What if she leaks this out?”
Wang Zichen quickly nodded and said, “If I finish spending…”
Wang Zichen was trying to take advantage of the situation.
He pushed his luck, taking advantage of the fact that everyone thought he felt wronged.
In the end, the old lady fell for his trick. Without thinking, she said, “I’ll give more after you finish spending it. Don’t worry.”
Wang Zichen screamed in his heart. His plan was flawless. Not only did he escape from his father’s clutches and stay away from Xu Qianqian, whom he disliked, but he also earned a huge sum of money. It was simply worth it.
In the master bedroom, Xu Qianqian sat up on the bed. “Husband, Zichen is leaving, right? I’ll go down and send him off.”
Wang Yunzhong was changing his clothes. He was wearing a formal suit with a tie and cufflinks. Those who didn’t know would think he was going to see a client instead of sending his son off.
For some reason, Wang Yunzhong thought of how every time he saw Jiang Chunfen after the divorce, she would appear more glamorous. Wang Yunzhong gradually developed the idea of not admitting defeat. He also had to appear neatly every time.
Hearing this, he said without looking back, “Lie down well. He knows we sent him away because of you. He must be angry. It’s better if the two of you don’t meet.”
“But I didn’t say that I wanted to send him away.” Xu Qianqian looked aggrieved as she looked at Wang Yunzhong’s back. “Husband, if Zichen is unhappy, don’t let him go. I’m fine. I’m not that delicate.”
Hearing Xu Qianqian’s words, Wang Yunzhong felt a little better. At least she was willing to coexist peacefully with Zichen.
With this thought in mind, he felt his son was too insensible.
Wang Yunzhong turned around and sat down on the bed. He held Xu Qianqian’s hand and said, “You don’t have to blame yourself. These are my thoughts. How many times has he frightened you these days? I’m on tenterhooks now. It would be bad if the fetus was affected.”
“And that’s his mother’s place. He’s not going there to suffer. It’s not as serious as you think.”
When Xu Qianqian heard this, she gradually lowered her head. “I don’t know why Zichen rejects me so muc when I didn’t even do anything. Moreover, when the child is born, and he comes back to see him, he will hate me even more.”
“Eh? You’re overthinking.” Wang Yunzhong smiled and comforted her. “Zichen is going to university soon. When the time comes, he’ll leave Baiyun City. You won’t be able to see him for long. As for your relationship, it’ll slowly recover. Don’t think too far ahead.”
As he spoke, Wang Yunzhong stood up and straightened his tie. “Alright, lie down and rest. I’ll send him off.”
Xu Qianqian nodded pitifully, but after Wang Yunzhong left the room, her expression instantly changed, and a smug sneer filled her eyes.
